The seventh annual JVM Language Summit took place during three days earlier this week. "It is a small room gathering of JVM and language implementers" explains JVM Architect John Rose. The number of attendees is intentionally limited so they can discuss topics with presenters and each other. The talks and discussions were about " the use of the JVM to implement new languages, and language constructs. What the pain-points are and how to evolve the JVM to fix the pain-points." Watch John's interview and learn about Valhalla and Panama, two new Oracle projects related to the JVM.
